I received the following press release that I am happy to post —
The Whitewater Area 4th of July committee is excited to announce it has a packed line-up of activities and entertainment for the 2010 festival held at the Cravath Lakefront Park.
The festival has secured national recording artist Heidi Newfield formerly of “Trick Pony” for a Saturday evening show. Heidi is an award winning American Country Music talent well known for her numerous hits including “What Am I Waiting For.” This female singer/songwriter powerhouse will undoubtedly pack the grounds and put on a show Whitewater won’t soon forget.
The 2010 event runs Thursday July 1st through Sunday July 4th and is an absolutely FREE festival. In addition to Heidi Newfield, the Independence Day celebration includes performances by The Blue Olives, Pipe Circus, Steve Meisner, Saddlebrook, Shelly Faith, Hours Left, the Minnieska Ski Team and Beatles Tribute Band “The Britins” plus more. Christman Amusements will provide a quality midway sure to please kids of all ages. For the adults, a 10,000 sq. ft. beer garden and full spread of food vendors will be onsite to satisfy even the hungriest appetite.
Sunday morning, July 4th, view the exciting “Whippet City Mile” race down Main Streetmainstreet. Then sit back and relax for our incredible Parade, organized by the Lions Club. This year we are fortunate to have the University of WI-Madison Marching Band in addition to all the local talent right here in our “Banner City.” The 2010 Honorary Parade Marshal, Jim Stewart will be enjoying the festivities including 2 nights of fireworks on the lake, a classic car show, beer garden, a taste of Whitewater food court and FREE high-caliber music and entertainment on the main stage.
